  • Suns' Mark Williams: Expected to play Monday

    Williams is probable for Monday's game against the Rockets due to right knee injury management.

    Monday's tilt is the second leg of a back-to-back, though the oft-injured Williams is expected to be available. Williams has averaged 12.4 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.8 blocks in 21.6 minutes per contest in his last 13 games, shooting 67.4 percent from the floor.

  • Suns' Mark Williams: Muted performance in win

    Williams closed with eight points (3-5 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one steal in 21 minutes during Sunday's 108-105 win over Oklahoma City.

    This was a below average appearance from Williams, but he continues to lead the Suns in per-game fantasy value in nine-category formats. Through 30 games, he's holding fourth-round value with averages of 12.7 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.9 blocks in just 23.8 minutes per contest.

    Magic's Goga Bitadze: Muted performance in win

    Bitadze contributed two points (1-2 FG) and two rebounds over 16 minutes during Sunday's 135-127 win over Indiana.

    This was a quiet outing for Bitadze, and that's been the case for a while now. Over his last four appearances, the center has seen 16.9 minutes per contest with averages of 5.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 blocks.

  • Cavaliers' Thomas Bryant: Sees 15 minutes off bench

    Bryant finished Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Pistons with seven points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 15 minutes.

    With Jarrett Allen sidelined by an illness, Bryant soaked up some extra minutes off the bench. He's been effective in limited action lately, posting averages of 7.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 0.7 blocks in 12.6 minutes over his last six contests.

  • Jock Landale C | ATL

    Grizzlies' Jock Landale: Logs double-double in spot start

    Landale accumulated 13 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and three assists across 29 minutes during Sunday's 120-114 loss to the Lakers.

    Landale slid into the first unit Sunday night, which was a precautionary measure for Santi Aldama's potential absence. Aldama was able to log a full game, but Landale took advantage of his opportunity and recorded his fourth double-double of the season. Landale has been a reliable replacement during the team's smattering of frontcourt injuries, and he'll continue to take on a featured role with Zach Edey (ankle) and Brandon Clarke (calf) on the sidelines.

  • Kel'el Ware C | MIA

    Heat's Kel'el Ware: Double-doubles in defeat

    Ware finished with 16 points (7-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one block over 25 minutes during Sunday's 125-106 victory over the Pelicans.

    Ware remained in the starting five for a 10th straight game and recorded his fifth double-double over that stretch. The second-year center's 12 boards were a game-high mark, and he has grabbed 12 or more rebounds in seven of his last 11 games. Over his last five appearances, Ware has averaged 13.0 points, 9.8 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks in 26.6 minutes per contest.

  • Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Another strong showing as starter

    Sharpe notched 17 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals over 32 minutes during Sunday's 127-115 win over the Nuggets.

    Sharpe made his second straight start, providing a full stat line to go with an efficient 17 points. The 2021 first-rounder is serving as Brooklyn's temporary starter at center while Nic Claxton tends to a personal matter, and Sharpe has flourished in his limited chances with the first unit since last season. Dating back to 2024-25, Sharpe has averaged 16.3 points, 11.5 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.5 blocks in 30.9 minutes per tilt over four games as a starter.

  • Magic's Wendell Carter: Second straight double-double

    Carter ended with 18 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-8 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists and two steals across 32 minutes during Sunday's 135-127 victory over the Pacers.

    The 26-year-old center has recorded a double-double in back-to-back games, giving him six on the season. Over the last 12 contests, Carter's production has taken a slight step forward, and he's averaging 14.3 points, 8.3 boards, 2.2 assists, 1.4 threes and 0.9 steals per game during that span.

  • Rudy Gobert C | MIN

    Timberwolves' Rudy Gobert: Posts second straight double-double

    Gobert closed with 18 points (8-10 FG, 2-2 FT), 14 rebounds and four blocks over 29 minutes during Sunday's 141-115 victory over Washington.

    Gobert was impressive on the offensive end and secured another double-double after racking up double-digit rebounds for a fourth consecutive appearance. He's been more aggressive as a scorer after being held to nine points or fewer in his last four games to close out December, putting up 13 and now 18 points in his first two matchups of January.

  • Grizzlies' Christian Koloko: Not starting Sunday

    Koloko won't start against the Lakers on Sunday, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.

    With Jock Landale joining the starting five, Koloko will slide to the second unit. Over six outings (two starts) with the Grizzlies this season, the third-year big man has averaged 2.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.2 blocks in 19.2 minutes per contest.
